    Connecting SIKU Indigenous biodiversity observations to CAFF global reporting
    (Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna(CAFF), 2024-11-05) Komangapik, Josh; McLennan, Donald; McLennan, Zoe; Price, Courtney
    This report is based on the expertise, knowledge, and perspectives of the CAFF Arctic Indigenous Canadian Youth Fellow and the Fellowship Advisory Group, and may not represent the views of Arctic Council members. Josh Komangapik and the Fellowship Advisory Group wish to thank the Qikiqtait Protected Area Program and the community of Sanikiluaq for allowing the use of their data for this Fellowship. Support for the CAFF Arctic Indigenous Canadian Youth Fellowship was provided by the Government of Canada’s Global Arctic Leaders Intiative.

    Overview of AMAP Initiatives for Monitoring and Assessment of Plastic Pollution in the Arctic
    (Arctic Council Secretariat, 2021-05) AMAP
    There is currently limited information about abundance, composition, and distribution of plastic pollution in the Arctic. In an effort to reduce this knowledge gap, AMAP has developed a Monitoring Plan for a coordinated pan-Arctic environmental monitoring program and an accompanying comprehensive set of technical Monitoring Guidelines. Together, these will provide valuable information and guidance for national and regional institutions to consider when implementing their respective plastics monitoring initiatives.

    State of the Arctic Freshwater Biodiversity: Key Findings and Advice for Monitoring
    (Arctic Council Secretariat, 2019-09) Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAFF)
    The State of the Arctic Freshwater Biodiversity Report (SAFBR), is a product of the Circumpolar Biodiversity Monitoring Program (CBMP) Freshwater Group of the Arctic Council’s Conservation of Arctic Flora and Fauna (CAFF) Working Group. The SAFBR provides a synthesis of the state of knowledge about biodiversity in Arctic freshwater ecosystems (e.g., lakes, rivers, and associated wetlands), identifying detectable changes and important gaps in our ability to assess biodiversity across a number of Focal Ecosystem Components (FECs; see Box 1): fish, benthic macroinvertebrates, zooplankton, planktonic algae, diatoms (algae), and macrophytes. The overall goal of the SAFBR is to assess the current status and trends of freshwater biodiversity of FECs across the Arctic on a circumpolar scale.
